Blanc de noir: elegance of red vinified in white
The blanc de noir collection gathers labels obtained from red grape varieties vinified in white, an enological choice capable of enhancing finesse, freshness, and aromatic immediacy. In this selection, you will find an original and identity-rich example from the Apulian territory, signed by Cantine Carpentiere, with a wine that interprets Nero di Troia in an unexpected and refined version.
What makes a blanc de noir special
A blanc de noir is born from grapes traditionally destined for reds, but processed with a white vinification, meaning minimal contact with the skins. The result is a wine with a more delicate profile, often characterized by good acidity, drinkability, and aromatic precision, while still maintaining the personality of the original grape variety. It is an ideal type for those looking for versatile, modern wines that differ from the usual, without sacrificing territorial identity.
Nero di Troia in a white vinification version
The product present in this collection, Come d'incanto Nero di Troia 100% vinified in white Cantine Carpentiere, represents this interpretation well. Nero di Troia, a symbol grape of the Apulian area, shows here a brighter and more essential face, with a reading that favors elegance and freshness. It is an interesting proposal for those who wish to discover a wine capable of uniting local roots and contemporary style, with a recognizable but more agile personality compared to traditional red expressions.
When to choose a blanc de noir
A wine of this type lends itself to various moments of consumption: aperitifs, seafood appetizers, raw dishes, delicate vegetarian plates, vegetable-based preparations, and light second courses. Its structure typically makes it pleasant even throughout the meal when one seeks a fresh and unobtrusive glass. It is a convincing choice for those who love white wines with a deeper soul and for those who want to bring an original label to the table, suitable for both informal occasions and more curated dinners.
